FAUXTON posted:Polling in Iowa showed Trump with like a ~5 point lead and he may well end up in third loving place behind the two Hispanic candidates. Sure, but a disparity three times that large is what we're talking about in NH and SC. At any rate of course you're right that it's plausible.

Hell, even just having to see Cruz on TV for months as the nominee would be a cruel form of torture. I mean I can understand why people are happy about Trump losing but Cruz is infinitely worse.

mdemone posted:Neither Rubio nor Cruz is going to gain 25% in NH over the span of one week. Trump will take a hit there, and maybe a bit in SC, but I expect he'll maintain a double-digit lead in both states going into the weekend. Sure, ok. But seriously, yes; you are right. Super Tuesday is going to be crazy as hell. I expect Rubio to do really loving well.

Trump's campaign manager made it clear that anything but first place was a loss. Was it Trump who was recently talking up how much money he was saving on his ground game? Sounds like his advisors failed him, and he struggles to run a winning team.

Trump was literally joking today at his rally in Cedar Rapids about how much money money other candidates had spent and how little he had spent on his ground game like, today as in February 1, 2016, the day he got hosed by his lack of a ground game

This is obviously a bad night for Trump...but it's interesting how it played out. The paranoia about Trump was always that he wouldn't turn his people out. Trump...did. Trump massively turned people out. Trump's vote total dwarfs Romney's or Santorum's from four years ago. Cruz just got people who no one detected out to vote for him. New Hampshire becomes very interesting. Will Trump collapse like Dean did, or will he be able to regain his position like Clinton 2008 did?

fart blood posted:So explain: I know why I hate Ted Cruz, but why do other conservatives hate Ted Cruz? For many of the same reasons, and also that he campaigns & fund-raises in support of GOP candidates trying to primary sitting GOP Senators from their right. And also because he is ten pounds of poo poo in a misshapen three-ounce bag.

fart blood posted:So explain: I know why I hate Ted Cruz, but why do other conservatives hate Ted Cruz? He's an unlikable rat-bastard, has a history of backing primary challenges to sitting GOP senators (and congressmen for all I know), and his senate temper tantrums allowed Reid to sneak in like a dozen Obama confirmations that were otherwise stonewalled. Plus, you know, all his many personal failings which grate on them as much as they do anyone else.

Wow that's huge if that's the story that runs. Trump brings in a bunch of new people as planned and then eats poo poo and dies anyway. It invalidates his whole strategy of appealing to the disaffected
